Cabs

The Daily Express is grumpy that the BBC spent £1,560,476 on taxis last year. The figure is actually down more than £200,000 on the previous year. That's despite James Purnell's Strategy and Digital division spending £54,000 more than in 2013/14.

But there's also a big bit missing - taxi spend in output divisions, like News, Television and Radio, which the BBC says is related to content, and therefore out of FOI scope. Fnaar.
